STEPHEN S. NEWTON, OF BINGHAMTON, NEW YORK.

OILER-NOZZLE.

SPECIFICATIONVforming part of Letters Patent No. 256,586, dated April 18, 1882. Applietion filed June 23, 1881. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, STEPHEN S. NEWTON, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Bin ghamton, in the county of Broome and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements iu Oder-Nozzles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear,

and exact description ofthe invention,such as 5o with an internal dan ge, c',

will enable others skilled inthe art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or ligures of reference marked thereon, which form apart'of this specification.

Figure l is a vertical section of an oilernozzle containing my invention. Fig. 2 is a similar section of a modification of a part of the invention, and Fig. 3 is a similar section of another modification of a part of the invention.

Like letters of reference refer to similar parts in all the drawings.

A is the body of an oil-can, the neckA of which is screw-threaded to receive a socket or thimble, C, expanded at its upper end into a drip-cup, C.

c3 is a flange attached to socket C. This socket has an opening or a port, a, to permit the passage of oil from the body of the.can or into the can.

The tip B is provided at its lower end with one or more openings, b, for the discharge of oil.

From an examination of the drawings it will be readily understood that when the tip is screwed up, as in Figs. l and 3, oil can pass through the openings a b and out through the tip, and that when said tip is screwed down, as in Fig. 2, oil cannot pass out through the body of the can through the tip, it being apparent that when thetip is thus screwed down that portion of the inner surface ofthe socket adjacent to the opening c serves as a valveseat, andthat portion of the lower end of the tip marked b2 constitutes a valve.

It willalso be seen that in each of the construct-ions shown the tip can be entirely removed by drawing it upward through thedri pcup, and thus permit oilwhich may have accumulated in the drip-cup to pass into the can through the opening a.

In Figs. l and 2 the drip-cup is provided the tip having ports b', through which oil can pass from the cup when the tip is screwed down, as in Fig. 2; but when the tip is screwed up, as in Fig. 1, the ports b are closed by ange c', so that oil from the can will not escape through said ports into the drip-cup.

In Figs. l and 2 there is also a packingwasher, E, interposed between the anges c3 of the sockets and the necks A of the oil-cans. These figures also show milled thumb-plates, having concave faces d and drip-ports attached to the tips.

In Fig. 1, c is a washer, held in place by the internal threads of the. socket C, and by reason ofits having a central opening and of the tubular extension or neck B of the tip being provided with ports b in its is adapted to close said ports, and a proper working relation of the parts will not be dis'- turbed by turning. the washer around a short distance, as is the casein those nozzles in which there are eccentric ports formed in the bottom ot' the socket and in the washer.

What I claim isl A l. In an oiler-nozzle, the combination, with the drip-cup and internally-threaded socket having an opening in its lower'end for the passage of oil, of the threaded tip B, adapted to close said opening by a downward movement relativeto the socket, and to be withdrawn from the socket by anupward movementto permit oil to pass from the drip-cup into the can, substantially as set forth.

2. In an oiler-nozzle, the drip-cup G, having an internal ange, c', in combination with the rising and falling tip so arranged that when the tip is screwed down to prevent the discharge of oil from the can the said port b shall be c', substantially as set forth.

3. In an oiler-nozzle, the combination, with the socket O, provided with a central port, a, and the packing-washer c, of the delivery-tip having the tubularextension B and ports b, substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof I afx my signature in presence of two witnesses.
